We live in a world of connected devices, real-time data, and instant access. Yet, we’ve never felt more disconnected. As leaders, we move fast, deliver results, and drive performance, often at the expense of the very thing that makes us most powerful: our humanity.
Leslie Murr is the founder of Human Leader, a movement redefining what it means to lead with authenticity, courage, and connection. With over 20 years of executive leadership experience in the new home construction industry, Leslie has long believed that success isn’t built through authority. Instead, it’s built through trust, empathy, and real human connection. That belief shaped her career and set her apart as a leader who inspired teams to perform at the highest levels.
But life had other plans. After facing a diagnosis of stage IV cancer and the unexpected loss of her mother within a matter of two months, Leslie’s understanding of vulnerability in leadership deepened. What had always been her natural way of leading suddenly became her life's mission. She knew it worked, but it instantly became clear that it mattered too much not to share. .
In her signature keynote, The Power of Vulnerability in Life and Leadership, Leslie delivers a raw, uplifting message that challenges traditional notions of strength and success. Through storytelling, honesty, and humor, she invites audiences to see that vulnerability isn’t weakness, rather it’s the bridge to trust, belonging, and sustainable leadership. Her message inspires teams, executives, and organizations to reconnect with purpose, lead with heart, and create cultures where people don’t just perform, they thrive.
Leslie Murr helps leaders rediscover the human side of leadership; the side that drives trust, courage, and lasting success.
